Viola Davis Wears Her Natural Hair at The Oscars



Viola Davis braved the Oscars on Sunday night wig free and looking gorgeous in an emerald green number by Vera Wang.  In previous pictures I'd seen her with her natural hair color and I thought she looked exquisite.  For the the Oscars, though, she went light auburn and you all know I'm a sucker for red hair.  Doesn't she look fab?
Only recently has Viola been brave enough to show her natural hair to the world.  In conversation with Ryan Seacrest, Viola credited her husband who had encouraged her to wear her natural hair saying, "My husband wanted me to take the wig off.  He said, ‘If you want to wear it for your career, that’s fine, but in your life wear your hair.  Step into who you are!’” 


And last but not least, let's talk about that body--looking toned and wonderful.  I hope I can be in as good a shape as Ms. Viola when I get to my 50s. She better werk!

I have to agree with Riva...the color doesn't complement her skin, IMO. But I love that she rocked it au naturel, and the dress looks fab.

I think the color MAY be a little too orange-ish for her but I still like it. Not her best color as I'm sure something a little cooler and deeper would have looked bomb on her. I'm glad though that she didn't go blonde. LOL
